Hahahaha

Please DON'T Stop now

Hell,

this engine is so great. I spent something like 2 hours today and everything is working as one would expect. How is this possible? Before I was working with torque and I was almost tortured with illogical things.

I think frankly that when 3d characters ressurection will be complete, WinterMute will be the best engine available for adventure creation. Keep up the good work Jan.

Btw. would it be hard for wintermute to cook me a coffee? I'd like to click on the coffee button before each programming session.
Maybe if I connect coffee machine over serial?

You might want to check out LZMA - http://7zip.org/ - which is stronger than bz2.

It compressed much more but there are two other problems:
1)Bzip2 & zlib decompress afaik faster than lzma and that's a real benefit (please correct me if I am wrong),
2)Lzma is under LGPL and not BSD which means that it can't be integrated into the wme interpenter (only as a seperate library which is not as elegant as the current solution)

Hi mnemonic,

I just took a look at the todo list and I have some questions about symbols.

In the feature list, what do the 'x' marks mean ? And what about the '?' at the scrolling speed thing ?

Are the x-marked already done or currently being worked at ?

Thanks

Mac

Hi Mac, the "x" items are already done and will appear in the next release. As for the scrolling, I was experimenting with the ScrollingSpeed* attributes and it seemed to me to it was possible to tweak the scrolling speed without any further modification to the engine. I don't remember the exact values I used (and I don't have the project with me now), but I think I simply set the scrolling speed to zero.

Hi, in past i made 2 or 3 suggestion, and i don't like they lost in forgetfulness, because I think that they are great ideas 

 - 3d actor block region and waypoints (useful for 2 actors not standing, http://forum.dead-code.org/index.php?topic=1039.0)
 - 3d actor animate textures (useful for eye or something similar, http://forum.dead-code.org/index.php?topic=1039.0
 - 3d Scene block area more easy for non complex 3d Scene (http://forum.dead-code.org/index.php?topic=1088.0)

If they are possible to be included in todo.txt, i'll be very pleased
That's all, thanks very much!! 

[Mnemonic]

Don't worry, I'm well aware of these.

[odnorf]

Let me add that Mnemonic also has a not-online todo list. Yes, he likes to act in mysterious ways 

EDIT: I just got a mail-bomb from mnemonic. So... because I'm scared I'm taking everything I said back. He is just having a great memory.

[varnama]

I drink very much  and for this i haven't great memory  (and i think other don't have also, jejeje)... But i know Mnemonic have doing a really good job and when he can make the improvements that we propose, but our duty work we must have to suggest, remember and oppress if it's possible (I take note of mail bomb )
Is logical, than Mnemonic don't update todo.txt with all suggestion we can do (they wouldn't have time for nothing), sorry for all inconvenience, and as terminator says:

I'll be back

Will slider control be released in the next version of WME (1.8.7 I guess)?
